THINK GREEN
When it comes to your car here is a few tips:
• Make sure that your tires are properly inflated.
Properly inflated tires can increase fuel effi-
ciency and reduce carbon dioxide emissions.
• When going to purchase a new car, consider
purchasing a gas/electric hybrid car.

Dear Parishioner,
Happy New Year!
“Wise men from the East came to pay Him homage”.
Wise men and women seek Him still.
On this little Christmas, Epiphany, we acknowledge
the universal saving will of our God, His desire that all be
saved and come to a knowledge of the Truth. In many
countries, today is the day of family gatherings and sharing
gifts with one another.
May 2018 be a year of blessing for you and your
loved ones. May peace become more a reality in our trou-
bled world. May the unemployed and under-employed find
rewarding work, and may we all be drawn deeper into the
mystery of Christ our Lord.
God love and bless you all.
Sincerely in Christ,
Msgr. Desmond

DO YOU HAVE FIVE MINUTES A DAY?
DO YOU WORRY ABOUT
OUR WORLD TODAY?
We would like to invite you to become part of the
LIVING ROSARY. This activity was started at
Saint Aloysius Parish a number of years ago as a
means of joining our prayers together to pray for
peace in our country and for all our special
intentions. It is also in response to people’s needs for
greater spiritual growth. At this time we have
several teams of 5 members each participating in our
living rosary. It is a power house of prayer!
This activity may be taken on by anyone. Families
can participate, the home bound can become part of
the Living Rosary; persons on their way to work can
join also. There are no meetings to attend.
What is necessary to
become part of the Living
Rosary is a commitment
to say one decade of the
Rosary each day. You
then become a member of
a team who together says
the entire rosary each day.
It is said for the intentions
of those members comprising the Living Rosary and
for the specific and special intentions of our parish.
It can be done at home, in the car, on the train, and
any time of your day.
The Rosary has been used for centuries for world
peace, against the heresy of the times, during the
Nazi occupation of Poland and at many other times.
This is a simple devotion, parish oriented, that
demands little of its members and produces great
spiritual results.
If you are interested in becoming a member of the
LIVING ROSARY. Please fill out the form below
and put it in the collection basket, drop it off at the
rectory or the parish center, or call Dee Taylor
at 973-226-0209 x 32. We will then contact you to
coordinate the groups and mysteries of the Rosary.
I am interested in becoming a member of the Living
Rosary:
